Having all but abandoned religion and traditional values progressives require something to fill the gap.
What has emerged is remarkably similar to what went before.

A number of Saint's have just recently been named, before whom all must kneel. Dogmatism is rife with twitter and other social media woke inquisitions.
Nobody may question their current narratives which are inerrant and infallible. Indulgences are bought with virtue signalling and other meaningless gestures.
The fervor of the "faithful" is currently reaching fever pitch as a revival circles around the globe.
Like religions of the past their movements are also hijacked by the power hungry and seekers of wealth and fame.
The list goes on and on...
All that is missing is a named god. But I guess progress will do!
They are pretty well at marketing the heaven stuff. It's not their fault. There will always be a supply to a huge demand.
We need saints to answer the question of life. We are living in such a state of ignorance and impotence.
